Big congrats to our friends at Jam & Tea Studios on dropping the trailer for their GenAI-powered game, Retail Mage! We predict this one’s a gold mine for Twitch clips. 🚀
Welcome to MageMart, aspiring Retail Mage! 💳🧙♂️✨ Today we debuted the Launch Trailer for our game, coming to PC (wishlists and follows are deeply appreciated): https://lnkd.in/gX5yFt7v I still can't believe we made Retail Mage in just under six months (!!!). Immensely proud of our team and our ability to both develop innovative game mechanics and breakthrough tech in R&D, and also implement them into an exciting play experience. It's also been so energizing to see early playtesters asking to play again and again, and inspiring to watch folks embrace a game where our proprietary Gen AI engine allows pre-scripted interactions to give way to improvised moments, and where the characters and world of MageMart plays back at runtime with player's decisions, dialog, and actions. Add us to your wishlist today, and join us when MageMart opens its doors--far sooner than you might think!

“We’re only scratching the surface of what this technology can do.” – J. Aaron Farr 🔮 We recently hosted a internal lunch & learn (what we call Power Up Play session) featuring J. Aaron Farr, where he gave us an exclusive look at Retail Mage, the latest game created by the incredible team at Jam & Tea Studios 🎉 One of the key takeaways? How they're using AI to create smarter NPCs and dynamic in-game events. It’s not just about tech for tech’s sake—it’s about using AI to build more engaging and immersive experiences that players will love. As J. Aaron Farr put it: 🔹 “When does technology truly make a difference?” 🔹 “When does it create something meaningful for players?” We’re excited to see Jam & Tea Studios keep pushing and learn more as they continue to develop Retail Mage. Stay tuned for more updates! #JamAndTeaStudios #RocketScienceGroup #RetailMage #GameDev #AI
